First Annual Earth Science Week Set for October

Earth Science Week, a celebration of public activities in the earth
sciences, is set for October 11-17, 1998. Activities for the week have
been developed by the American Geological Institute; in Kansas, the week
has been recognized by a governor's proclamation. Among the items
available from AGI are an Earth Science Week information packet, an 18"
x 24" color poster on geoscience careers, and other videos and student
and teacher activities. Information for Earth Science Week ideas,
activities, and special events is available from AGI at
www.earthsciweek.org.
